The Story of ilie Sticklebacks.
Dear to the heart of all juveuile
shermen is the three spined stickle
back. This little fish is held in great
repute by all naturalists on account
of his unfishlike habit of building a
nest and watching over the young
fishes.
They are a very pugnacious race,
the sticklebacks, dearly loving a fight,
and should they be uuable to pick a
quarrel with some other members of
the aquatic world they get up a battle
among themselves.
When about to build a nest, the
male fish carries in his mouth bits of
weed and plant stems to the spot
where he intends to make his home.
He th n proceeds to cement the pieces
of weed together by meaus of a mucus
excreted from his mouth or body.
The floor of the nest is made first,
and then the sides and top are con
structed. The nest completed, Mr.
Stickleback, who has now a very hand
some appearance, sallies forth in search
of a wife. The lady of his heart's de
sire found, Mr. Stickleback, by dint
of much coaxing and not a little
chasing,induces her to euter the nest.
Jlere she deposits her eggs and de
camps, leaving her unhappy husband
to watch over the eggs and, wlien
batched, bring up the young stickle
backs.
This he does most conscientiously,
mounting guard over the little uest
containing the bright yellow colored
eggs, attacking and driving away all
would be intruders. —Treuton (N. J.)
American.
A Hnt That Kciißoni'd.
J. G. Wood, naturalist, tells us that
the rat is intelligent to a degree. To
this fact, he says, any p: ofsssional rat
catcher will bear witness, "for to
catch an old rat is a feat that taxes
human intellect to the utmost." I
know of two boys who made tbe ex
periment, and who now fully agree
with Professor Wood.
They wanted to capture an old rat
that lived in the barn. One of this
rat's long passages ran underneath
the building and opened at the back
into a shady corner of the barnyard.
This seemed to be the old fellow's
favorite doorway. The boys had often
seeu him dart"across the yard and
vanish through it. They thought
therefore that this was tho place where
they might hope to take him.
Ho one afternoon they bought n
trap, temptingly baited with a piece
of smoked cheese, and placed it a few
feet from the wall, directly facing the
hole. Then they climbed a nearby
tree, from which they could observe
all that might happeu without being
themselves seen.
The trap was on the plan of the
ordinary red wooden mousetrap, Only
it was larger and made of wivo. There
was the usual hole for the rat's head
to enter, and the cheese was stuck
firmly on tho little trigger, which on
being jerked would cause tho spring
to fly up and choke the victim.
lu about half an hour the boys
heard a faint scratch on tbe gravel be
neath. The rat had come to the door
of his passage and was glancing cau
tiously around. No one was in sight
Nothing stirred. Ho gazed longingly
at the cheese. The boys held their
breath as they watched and leaned
forward in their eagerness. Oh, if lie
would only be quick! Something
might happeu to frighten him oft'.
Hut the old rat was in 110 hurry.
Age had taught hira many things and
made him crafty. He stayed just in
side his hole and considered the matter
roughly. He smiled quietly behind
his long, gray whiskers at the thought
of anyone supposing that lie would he
taken in by a simple trick like that.
He knew from the very first that it
was a trap and studied it only to dis
cover how it was worked. In a few
moments he aguin cime from his hole
slowly, cautiously, as before and de
liberately inspected the trap from all
sides.
Perfectly satisfied that he knew all
about it, he returned to the front.
Then, to the utter amazement of the
two boys, he placed himself with his
tail instead of his head toward the
trap's opening. He looked aronnd to
see that he was in the correct position
and then, by vigorously kicking liis
hind legs, sent a shower of pebbles
rattling against the wire.
Suddenly there was a snap. Some
of the pebbles had gone through tho
opening and struck the cheese. 111
auotlier instant the old rat had turned,
grabbed the cheese from the now
harmless trigger and was gono.—
Philadelphia Times.
Fence-rosl .Jimmy.
Of course that was not his real
name. In his mamma's big Bible was
written, James Sutton Anderson, but
only his parents and relatives called
him James, or sometimes Jamie.
With his boy friends it was different.
Jimmy was easier to say, so Jimmy it
was, and now for the reason why
"Fence-Post" was tacked on before
the Jimmy.
Down by the bars through which
the cows passed into the sunny pas
ture on the other side of the fence,
Jimmy loved to sit whero he could
watch Joe, tho hired man, drive the
cows to and from the barn.
A little ways from the bars was a
tall post, part of this fence, and here
Jimmy would perch for hours at a
time, even when Joe and the cows
were not near, and ho watched the
little fishes in the tiny brook which,
at this spot, stole under the fence.
When any of bis friends came to his
house and asked for him, his mother
would always say:
"Oh, you'll find him down by the
fence-post at the edge of the pasture."
So the boys began to call him "Fence
Post Jimmy," but he did not care in
the least.
Now there were many things he saw
there to delight him. First of all, the
fishes. One day while watching them
he found that there were other liying
creatures iu the water, and he made a
list of them,so he ccu'd teli his grand
pa, for old Mr. Anderson knew many
fine stories about the things Jimmy
saw, and could give each creature its
right name when the boy Had described
it to him. As grandpa was too feeble
to walk down tothisplace Jimmy kept
his eyes nud ears open that he might
carefully tell what he saw and heard.
Many discoveries were made iu one
summer. There were the frogs which
Jimmy was able to watch from the
time when the jelly-like eggs hatched
into polliwogs up to the time when
Mr. Frog hopped up on a stone with
his brand-new legs and sounded his
first croak.
Then thero were the little lizards
and caddisworms, crabs hiding under
stones, snails carrying their houses
along in the mud, water-spiders, pin
fish and funny squirming bugs aud
waterbeetles.
Dragontlies and butterflies, bees
and birds flew about. Fence-Post
tower and a mud-wasp showed Jimmy
how she made her house. Bight be
fore his eyes she went to the edge of
the water, gathered the mild, and to
his surprise began building her home
on the under side of a large stone not
far away.
Brown, fuzzy caterpillars crawled
along tho rails, and a bright-colored
worm spun a soft nest iu a knot-ho'e
of the post, closed the door aud went
to sleep for its long nap.
Other sights of this sort Jimmy saw,
aud soon became well acquainted with
these new friends, from the little ants
and spiders on the fence to the big
toad that lived in the grass and came
out sometimes to catch Hies.
Thus Jimmy amused himself. ne
was never lonely when he had no one
to play with, for here he had so many
new friends. He learned to bo gentle
with all dumb creatures, aud the Inst
time I heard from him he had tnken
some of the boss into his secret, and
was giving them lessons iu all he had
learned from his Foncc-Post tower.—

A Sand Sto. in.
In crossing that part of Arabia
known as Yemen, an English traveler
a lew years ago encountered a storm
of sand. He describes tho unpleasant
incident in a vivid manner.
The stinging sensation as the sand
struck one's hands and face was most
painful. Calling a halt, wo crawled
under some thick bushes, tho men
hurriedly arranging a strip of canvas
so as to gain the most protection from
its scanty folds. We were just in
time, for the wind increased in strength
and became u gale. The sand, which
till now had been but thin,commenced
whirling in clouds until the air was
dark with it. Huddling together, we
tied our turbans over our mouths and
waited for a cessation.
The desert wind was intensely hot
and the burning, gritty grains of saud
found their way under one's clothiug
and into one's ears aud eyes until life
became almost unendurable. I had
seen a sandstorm or two before, but
110110 like this. The poor, grumbling
camels lay down and wagged their
necks slowly from side to side. So
strong was the sand laden wind that
it was impossible for the men to go
even as far as the river to get water,
and our throats were parched with
thirst.
Happily this was the only sand
storm we experienced on tho whole
journey, and I hope I may never see
another.
Swallowed H Hole.
The other day Jimmy, four year*
old, found one of those bono-rimmed
circles whi 'h,l believe, ladies call eye*
lets, and, while playiug in the garden,
swallowed it. The family were in the
house busily engaged with a work ou
entomology, when Jimmy ran in,
with mouth wide open, and eyes dis
tended to their utmost capacity. His
mother caught him by the arm, and
t embling with that deep anxiety which
only a mother can feel, inquired:
"What is the matter? What has
happened ?"
"Water!" gasped little Jimmy,
nearly scared to death.
It was brought liim, when, after
drinking copiously, he exclaimed—
"Oh, mother, I swallowed a hole !"
"Swallowed a hole, Jimmy ?"
Yes, mother, swallowed a hole, with
a piece of ivory around it!"
Chi Id I t'll and t.lio Dark.
Children should be accustomed as
soon as possible to sleep in a dark
room. Unless they have learned to
be afraid of it, the darkness is sooth
ing to the nerves, and the rest is more
profound and refreshing than when
there is the unconscious stimulation
of light. It is particularly desirable
for children of a nervous temperament
that light should be excluded, yet it is
most often the nervous, sensitive

filled with the shapes the dark -jay

HELPS FOR HOUSEWIVES.
donning Table (ilu**.
The nio&t effective way of cleaning
cruets, carafes,decanters, toilet bot
tles, etc., is to put the ordinary,every
day Irish potato peelings iu tlieni and
allow to stand over night. On rinsing
out the glass will be found clear and
brilliant. Pebbles and shot should
never be used as they scratch and
wear the inner surface.
Improving White Cloths.
To improve the color of white cloths
and clothing that have been washed a*
spoonful of borax dissolved in a little
hot water should be added to the last
water in which they are rinsed. It
will whiten the clothes very much.
Another hint for the laundry is to add
a little dissolved gum arabic to the
boiled starch used for linen collars,
cuffs and tho bosoms of shirts. Fre
quently salt is also mixed with the
starch.
Restoring Finish to Woodwork.
To restore the finish to the wood
work of furniture, according to a pro
fessional piano-tuner, is simply to
wash it thoroughly with warm water,
using a soft cloth. The dulness of
highly polished surfaces on furniture
is duo to dirt, and rubbing in oils and
polishes increases the evil by collect
ing more dirt. A small part of the
surface should be washed off at a
time, doiug it softly and thoroughly.
It should be given a final rinsing with
clear water, and then wiped dry with
a soft cloth.
Dump Bod*.
There is no doubt thut many eases
of pneumonia are due to "company
beds." A guest-chamber bed, or any
uuused one, should never be "made
up" uutil the day it is occupied. A
counterpane maybe neatly drawn over
the mattress, and the pillows placed to
simulate making, butthnt is all. Sheets
in an unused bed gather dampness,
and if left long enough will beeomo
almost wet. Naturally, to sleep in
such a bed menus illness. Your ease
is not a:i exceptional one. Al
ways test u strange bed in which yon
are to sleep with a hand-glass. Lay
it between the sheets, and if it be
comes clouded you may know they
are dump.
Tho China Cloaet.
A woman who is building a Louse,
which is the crystallization of lier in
genuity and ideas of convenience
picked up here, there aud everywhere,
lias in the china closet opening from
her dining room two deep drawers in
serted under the bottom shelf. The
drawers are each of them fourteen
inches deep aud are lined throughout
with tin. In one of them bread is to
be kept and in the other cake. They
fit snugly, the cake drawer locking.
Everybody knows that the tin bread
ami cake boxes which are bought
at the shops and which arc kept 011
the floors or shelves of closets are
very well while new, but the carele-s
opening and shutting of them many
times a day soon bangs them into a
shape which prevents their tight clos
ing. When that couditiou is reached,
they are about as useless as an open
shelf for the purpose for which tliey
were designed, that of keeping out
the heat aud damp air, and also mire,
if such infest the place. Housekeep
ers whose china closets have been in
existence for years will iiud it an easy
matter to have such drawers added.

Whrrc FUh Spend tho Winter.
James B. Church, of Tiverton,
Rhode Island, a recognized authority
on fish and their habits, thus writes:
Fish are, except the birds, the best
pilots in the world. Either the birds
or fish know more when asleep about
piloting than a man pilot does when
awake. Now, as to the habits of fish.
They come on the coast in the spring,
when the migratory instinct starts
them out of their winter's sleep. In
winjer they are in a dormant state,
like the bear, skunk and woodchuek.
The old theory that fish migrated
south is all wrong. Fish simply leave
the coast and go off shore on the
northern edge of the gulf stream, get
into water of the right temperature
and go into winter quarters. Before
the time comes for them to start on
their annual pilgrimage for their win
ter quarters they have taken on a
good coat of fat. It is under their
skin, and their stomach is lined with
it, and it is also all through their
bodies when they arrive at the spot
that they have selected for their win
ter home. Then there grows over
their eyes a white film, and their vent
closes, and so they remain until the
time comes for them to 6tart for their
Bummer home.
Cotton I* Still the American King.
The annual report of Secretary Heß

At 11,199,994 bales, the crop shows an
Increase of nearly 2,250,000 bales over
that of the previous year. The total
value, $320,553,000, is over $1,300,000
less than that of a year ago, owing to
a reduction of about $8 per bale.
Hardship* of Army I.tfo.
From the Frees, Milroy, Ind.
One of the first to offer their services for
the country in the Civil War was A. R. Sef
ton, of Milroy, Rush Co., Ind. He mado a
good record. The life of every soldier is a
hard one, and Mr. Seffon's case was no ex
ception. "We were in Tennessee, penned
in on all sides. Oar rations were very
scarce," said he, "and we had heguu to go
on quarter allowance, and as the ruin was
not enough toreplenishthe weHs or streams,
our canteens wont empty. We were hur
ried on, and the only way to quench our
thirst WHS to go down on our hands and
knees and drink from the hoof tracks made
by the horses.
Our Canteens Were Empty.
"Some of us were taken sick from the
effects of this. I was laid up several weeks
in a field hospital from fever. From that
time I was always aifiicted more or less.
"About four years ago I became much
worse. Our family doctor seemed puzzled
over my case, and it began to look as If
there was no hope for my recovery, and
that tho inevitable end was" near.
"Last November I was advised to try Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills. The physicians said
they were an excellent medicine, but would
do no good In my case. Rut I tried them,
iiud am glad I did, for I became better at
oii .o. Eight boxes taken according to di
rections mired ine. I used the last of the
pills about a year ago, and have not been
troubled with my ailments since."

been demonstrated in thousands of in

Better Treatment for Prisoners.

New York. The Inmates are now en
abled to read till 9:30 o'clock every

their condition Is already visible. They
are more cheerful and amenable to
rules, and there lias been a large in
crease in the number of books taken
from the library, showing how gladly
the new privilege is received. The

now be deprived of his lamp. It is not
